Is your child struggling to attend school? You are not alone. Since the pandemic school avoidance has skyrocketed by 134%. This is a challenge many families are facing right now.

We're here to help. Our friendly support group brings together parents who understand exactly what you're going through. Any parent affected by this is welcome to join, even if your child struggles to just get going in the morning and is late to school frequently, we want to hear from you.

What we offer:

  • A welcoming space to share your story and concerns

  • Tips from other parents who've been there

  • Help understanding school rules, local authority processes and your rights

  • Expert advice from professionals

  • Resources to support you and your child

Most importantly, you'll find a caring community that gets it. Being part of our group means you don't have to handle this alone. The advice, emotional support and guidance you'll receive from fellow parents, carers and professionals can help you feel more confident in addressing your child's school avoidance. With the support of a community, you're not only helping your child but also taking important steps toward your own wellbeing and peace of mind.
